Newcastle vs Liverpool: The Top Single Game Survivor Tips!
Fourth plays ninth in the Premier League this weekend… but you wouldn’t have guessed it would be Liverpool languishing down in mid-table with Eddie Howe’s Newcastle flying high!
Jurgen Klopp and his side looked back to their radiant, gegenpressing best in their Merseyside derby win over Sean Dyche’s Everton, with Mohamed Salah finally back among the goals.
The Reds will try and sustain that when they travel to St. James' Park on Saturday evening, but the really big news is that it’s our game of the weekend on Single Game Survivor!

Which team will win the race to 3 shots on target?
With Virgil Van Dijk likely back in the Liverpool side, will Newcastle find it so easy to breach Klopp’s defence? The stats suggest, despite the undoubted attacking prowess of Allan Saint-Maximin and Callum Wilson, that Liverpool may have the edge:
Shots on target per 90 in PL 22/23:
Newcastle: 5.0
Liverpool: 5.9
Against Everton, Liverpool kept close to their average by hitting six shots on target during the game.
Newcastle however - in their last home game against David Moyes’ struggling West Ham - managed just two shots on target.
Who will you go for?
Which team will win the race to 3 substitutions?
Newcastle, though drawing with West Ham in their previous home game, took until the 69th minute to make their first change, making two more after that.
Meanwhile Liverpool, despite being in losing positions to Wolves and Brighton in their last two Premier League away matches, took until the 65th and the 68th minute to make their first changes - but did unload the bench thereafter, making five and four subs respectively.
With a number of players coming back from injury, will Klopp look to rest and rotate more than Howe?
Which team will win the race to 2 bookings?
Newcastle’s fine defensive record - just 13 goals conceded all season and only six at home - hasn’t been achieved by being a soft touch, with the likes of Kieran Trippier and Nick Pope proving astute signings.
Here are some data comparisons between the Toon and Liverpool as we look to help you ace the question above…
Fouls per PL match in 22/23:
Newcastle: 10.6
Liverpool: 9.3
Yellow cards in PL 22/23:
Newcastle: 41
Liverpool: 23
These stats hint that Newcastle should ‘win’ this category…but the decision is yours!
